1. Introduction
About the Product
This product is a small PC for embedded use that is equipped with an Intel(R) Atom N2600 1.6 GHz,
low-power, dual core processor.
This product has a fanless and slitless case, uses CFast for storage, and has a completely spindleless
design.
This product is equipped with various expansion interfaces such as 1000BASE-T, USB 2.0, and serial.
This product is the successor to the BX955 and has achieved high calculation capabilities such as an
improved CPU processing capability that is twice that of its predecessor. In addition, this product assists
our customers in their implementations of plans to reduce running costs and energy usage. Thanks to
its installation compatibility, this product can be swapped into existing systems.
Its rich variety of expansion interfaces, such as 1000BASE-T, USB 2.0, and serial, and its usage of
CFast cards for storage enable this product to be designed in a completely spindleless manner.
This product is available in the following 5 models :
- Base model with Intel(R) Atom Processor N2600 1.6GHz
BX-955SD-DC6000 (Memory 2GB, without OS, CFast card)
- Windows Embedded Standard 2009 model, VGA type with Intel(R) Atom Processor N2600 1.6GHz
BX-955S-DC6311 (Memory 2GB, with OS, 4GB, CFast card)
- Windows Embedded Standard 2009 model, DVI type with Intel(R) Atom Processor N2600 1.6GHz
BX-955SD-DC6311 (Memory 2GB, with OS, 4GB, CFast card)
- Windows Embedded Standard 7 model with Intel(R) Atom Processor N2600 1.6GHz
BX-955SD-DC6312 (Memory 2GB, with OS, 8GB, CFast card)
- Windows Embedded Standard 7 model with Intel(R) Atom Processor N2600 1.6GHz
BX-955SD-DC631N (Memory 2GB, with OS, 16GB, CFast card)
Features
- Dual core energy saving processor with HyperThreading Technology
This product uses a dual core, four-thread Intel(R) Atom N2600 1.6 GHz processor. This enables the
product to perform stable concurrent processing at the same time of multiple applications such as
communication, control, and HMI applications.
Compared to the conventional BX955, this product boasts CPU performance that is twice that of its
predecessor, which enables this product to be applied to uses that require higher levels of calculation
processing.

1. Introduction
2BX-955Sx Series User’s manual
- Contributes to Reductions in Running Cost and Energy Usage
Although this product guarantees sufficient performance, it sports low power consumption. The
slitless and fanless design leads to a reduction in maintenance and inspection work. What's more, as a
resource-saving PC, this product assists our customers in their implementations of plans to reduce
running costs and energy usage.
- Serving the downsizing of equipment, a small footprint design for A5-sized installation area
This product adopts space-saving design of 182(W) x 155(D) x 35(H), permitting placement in the
smaller, A5-sized space with opening of only 50mm. It largely serves downsizing of your equipment,
fits any area with the aestheticness kept. It is also possible to attach to the VESA standard 75 x 75, 100
x 100mm using the optional fittings.
- Remote power management function to reduce operation tasks
This product supports timed/automated system start-up (Resume By Alarm). For example, it enables
unattended operation, such as starting to show information of an establishment in unison at opening
time. Also, it supports system start-up externally via network (Wake On LAN) and modem (Power On
by Ring). It encourages significant labor saving in operation.
- Major types of peripherals are supported with rich interfaces including two CFast card slots
It has a variety of extended interface such as 1000BASE-T x 2, USB2.0 x 4, serial (RS-232C) x 2.
It has two CFast card slots that can use for OS and data. They are very useful because you can use one
slot for system start-up and the other for maintenance, system log, or taking away the collected data.
- Falling-off prevention tools and fixing clamps
provided to avoid trouble caused by
disconnected cable
This product stays trouble-free, being equipped
with USB removal prevention fitting and cable
clamp for connectors with no locking mechanism,
such as USB cable, and with hardware to properly
mount and avoid falling out of CFast card.
- Safety design required for embedded applications
For Windows Embedded Standard installed model, it is possible to use the EWF*1 function of OS. It is
designed for safety required for embedding purpose, for example, prohibiting unwanted writing to the
CFast card with EWF function will relieve the concern about the writing limits to the CFast card and
prevent an unintentional system alteration.
*1 EWF (Enhanced Write Filter) is a function specific to Windows Embedded Standard that protects the disk from being actually
written by redirecting the writing to RAM.
- A wide range of power supplies (10.8 - 31.2VDC) supported
As the product supports a wide range of power (10.8 - 31.2VDC), it can be used in a variety of power
environments. The separately available AC adapter adds support for 100VAC power.
Supported OS
- Windows® Embedded Standard 2009 32bit Japanese
- Windows® Embedded Standard 7 32bit Japanese / Multi-Language

DANGER
WARNING
CAUTION
WARNING

1. Introduction
BX-955Sx Series User’s manual 5
- Do not use or store this product in a location exposed to high or low temperature that exceeds range
of specification or susceptible to rapid temperature changes.
Example: - Exposure to direct sun
- In the vicinity of a heat source
- Do not use this product in extremely humid or dusty locations. It is extremely dangerous to use this
product with its interior penetrated by water or any other fluid or conductive dust. If this product
must be used in such an environment, install it on a dust-proof control panel, for example.
- Avoid using or storing this product in locations subject to shock or vibration that exceeds range of
specification.
- Do not use this product in the vicinity of devices that generate strong magnetic force or noise. Such
products will cause this product to malfunction.
- Do not use or store this product in the presence of chemicals.
- To clean this product, wipe it gently with a soft cloth dampened with either water or mild detergent.
Do not use chemicals or a volatile solvent, such as benzene or thinner, to prevent pealing or
discoloration of the paint.
- This product’s case may become hot. To avoid being burned, do not touch that section while this
product is in operation or immediately after turning off the power. Avoid installation in a location
where people may come into contact with that section.
- CONTEC does not provide any guarantee for the integrity of data on CFast card.
- Always disconnect the power cable from the receptacle before mounting or removing the expansion
board, or before connecting or disconnecting any connector.
- To prevent corruption of files, always shutdown the OS before turning off this product.
- CONTEC reserves the right to refuse to service a product modified by the user.
- In the event of failure or abnormality (foul smells or excessive heat generation), unplug the power
cord immediately and contact your retailer.
- To connect with peripherals, use a grounded, shielded cable.
- The CFast card connector doesn't support hot plug. While this product is turned on, do not insert
or remove the CFast card or touch the CFast card connector on the product. This product may
malfunction or cause a failure.
- Component Life:
(1) Battery---The internal calendar clock and CMOS RAM are backed by a Lithium primary
battery.
The backup time at a temperature of 25°C with the power disconnected is 10 years.
(2) CFast---The CFast model uses a CFast in the OS storage area.
The NandFlash can be rewritten 60,000 times or more.
As a reference value, the rewritable lifetime can be determined by the following
calculation.
Rewritable lifetime (number of times) = ((capacity [MB] / management block size
[MB]) × 60,000 times) / (number of management blocks rewritten each time)
Example: If a 4 MB file is created and is rewritten once every 10 seconds
Rewritable lifetime = ((3577/2) × 60000)) / 2 = 53,655,000 (number of times)
Lifetime = 53,655,000 / ((60/10) × 60 × 24 × 365)≒17 (year)
* Replacement of expendables is handled as a repair (there will be a charge).
* Component life is not guaranteed value but only referential value.
